I guess what appealed to me was finding this dagger in its "natural state". This was a vet bring back offered to me because of my appreciation for that era. When the owner knew I collected WW2 rifles he offered me this piece ...I just wanted to be able to buy it while making a fair offer. He has some other daggers as well that I would like some advice on if thats ok. Will post pics as I can. I think I'm going to offer him what he asked since it seems to be a fair number, I won't get hurt and I guess I may be able to sell it down the road if something better comes along...plus I like the guy and want to see the rest of his collection. Maybe this is my "admission fee" ??
